What the papers say - March 13

Theresa May's message to Russia, the suspension of football pundit Jamie Carragher and the death of comedy legend Sir Ken Dodd make the front pages on Tuesday.

Many papers lead on the latest developments in the nerve agent attack on Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia, after the Prime Minister told MPs it was "highly likely" Russia was behind it.

The Daily Telegraph reports that Mrs May has given Vladimir Putin an "ultimatum", and that he has until midnight tonight to explain the use of a Russian-made nerve agent or face retaliation for a "brazen attempt to murder innocent civilians on our soil".

The Times reports that the PM has "cleared the way" for a cyber attack on Russia, after telling MPs that Moscow had carried out a "direct attack on our country" or had "lost control of this potentially catastrophically damaging nerve agent".

The Financial Times reports on Mrs May's warning that if Russia does not come up with a "credible response", it will be concluded "that this action amounts to unlawful use of force by the Russian state against the United Kingdom".

The i reports that the Russian state media had claimed the allegations were a "circus show in British Parliament", while the Metro says Mrs May had laid blame for the poison attack "firmly at Vladimir Putin's door".
